Sebaceous Hyperplasia
EXPERT TREATMENT FOR SEBACEOUS HYPERPLASIA
Sebaceous hyperplasia is a very common, yet frequently misunderstood, skin condition that presents as small, shiny, yellowish bumps on the face. Often featuring a slight indentation in the center, these harmless lesions typically appear on the forehead, nose, and cheeks. They are caused by the overgrowth of oil (sebaceous) glands beneath the skin.
Many patients mistake sebaceous hyperplasia for stubborn whiteheads or acne breakouts. However, because these bumps are structurally enlarged glands rather than clogged pores, traditional acne creams and facial scrubs will have absolutely no effect on them. Professional intervention is required to safely shrink or remove the overgrown gland.
Concord Medical Aesthetics provides fast, minimally invasive treatments to target and eliminate sebaceous hyperplasia. Using precise techniques such as electrosurgery or focused laser ablation, we carefully break down the enlarged gland while preserving the surrounding healthy tissue, restoring a smooth, blemish-free complexion.
